Cells can contain thousands of different genes; however there is often only a small percentage of these genes that are being expressed at any given time. this indicates that - a. cells are unable to express all genesb. gene expression is regulatedc: the expression of genes is randomd unused genes are removed from the dna

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

b. gene expression is regulated

Explanation:

Several mechanisms exist in the cell which regulate the turning on or turning off of certain genes.

These mechanisms are collectively referred to as gene regulation. The regulation can occur in several ways, including;

  • Structural and chemical changes to genetic materials in the cell.
  • Regulation of  transcription process.
  • Regulation of mRNA translation or protein synthesis

The correct option is b.

b. mutualistic species
c. keystone species
d. secondary consumer

Answers

The answer to the question stated above is letter a. producer.
The sudden loss of a producer would necessarily cause the loss of most or all of a food web.
Producers are the beginning of a simple food chain. Producers are plants which are at the beginning of every food chain that involves the Sun. All energy are coming  from the Sun and plants are the ones who make food with that energy, without producers the transfer of energy is destructed.

The endosymbiont theory proposes that eukaryotes evolved from a symbiosis between a prokaryote and a protocell.a. True
b. False

Answers

a. True

As many researchers hypothesize that the old single-celled organism or the origin of the complex-celled organisms came from the endosymbiosis of the mitochrondrion organism and the prokaryotic cell. It has been said that mitochondria was an independent organism which then to have been evovled itself after planting itself inside a prokaryotic cell which aided cellular respiration and production of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). This then aided the prokaryotic cell to be more sophisticated and caused another change from having without a true nucleus to a eukaryotic cell with a nucleus and embedded DNA.
